Is there anything else that the code that I posted in the other email?
I didn't removed any check.  I haven't removed any check that existed
before when I ported VMState.  I only removed some support for very old
versions that didn't work at all (ram device comes to mind).  If you see
that I removed any other check, let me know and I will put it back.

Later, Juan.
